ONE-TO-ONE ART TUITION/MENTORING (ONLINE)
These sessions are personalized to suit the level, pace, and interests of each individual. I can cover a range of subjects and media to suit you. If you would like weekly, occasional, or one-off tuition then do get in contact. Sessions take place on Zoom and may also include email feedback/notes/resources as required.
• School / home schooled pupils
• Students on a further/higher education course (college or University)
• Students seeking help creating a portfolio of work.
• Mature learners who wish to make a change in direction or enter education
• Emerging Artists seeking creative direction and development
One-to-one tuition sessions are ideal for gaining confidence and direction, learning specific drawing and painting techniques, finding guidance with a project or for students looking for support and suggestions in creating portfolios or achieving art qualifications. My aim is to help each individual improve their technical skills, enjoy their learning and gain confidence so that they can develop as artists.
We will begin by looking at a selection of your work and sketchbooks, discussing your ideas, where you see your work progressing, what you would like to achieve and how I can assist you.
Who is One-to-One Tuition for?
Each tuition session is tailored to the individual, to suit a range of abilities from complete beginners who are intimidated by group lessons, to students of any age needing extra support, to new emerging artists who have creative block or who want to learn a new technique.
I am happy to tutor/mentor:
• School / home schooled pupils
• Students on a further/higher education course (college or University)
• Students seeking help creating a portfolio of work.
• Mature learners who wish to make a change in direction or enter education
• Emerging Artists seeking creative direction and development
Adult Tuition
Joining a group class can be a little intimidating for many adult beginners, especially those who have not drawn or painted since school. One-to-One sessions can help you learn some technical skills and gain confidence with a patient and enthusiastic tutor.
One-to-One sessions are also perfect for those who wish to learn how to work in a new medium or subject matter, need more specialised or rigorous tuition on a particular subject or require assistance with a specific project.
The pacing, length and frequency of your lessons, are suited to you. Along with the art materials / subject matter and way in which you learn. I can provide step by step demonstrations, set weekly/monthly activities, feedback and critiques on your artwork, and wider art advice/guidance.
School, College and University Students
I can offer support to students of different ages (from 8 years old upwards) and levels in creating portfolios, achieving art qualifications or simply enjoying an after-school hobby while gaining drawing and painting skills. I am also happy to offer advice to prospective mature students.
I encourage Student’s independent study and can teach them both practical techniques and art history, to supplement their formal studies. I can help each student develop and improve their use of sketchbooks and project work and enable them to show their creative thinking more clearly.
I can demonstrate an extensive range of different drawing and painting techniques. Guide you through a project from brief, initial ideas, trials and experiments, idea development and final piece. I will also talk through how to annotate and present your work. When talking through a project I will encourage experimentation and creative thinking while keeping you on track so that you can achieve your aims.

ONE TO ONE TUITION BY EMAIL
I am offering limited spaces for bespoke one to one tuition via email.
Here is how it works:
Each week, you can email photos of up to three artworks that you want some feedback on (please send them all in one email), you can also ask questions or describe problems you have encountered or let me know what you would like to improve.
I will give you feedback on your artworks, giving suggestions for improvements and advice. I will also send you individualised drawing/painting exercises and activity suggestions as well as occasional extra resources and relevant links. You will receive this between Thursday and Sunday via email.
You can send more than three pictures the first week, so I can get more of an idea what you have been working on and your current ability but I will only give feedback on three.
It would also be helpful if you can let me know:
Your thoughts behind your drawings; how and why you made them.
Things you want to improve/found difficult.
What you enjoyed and what went well.
Your aims, goals and what you want to concentrate on next.
What media you have available / want to learn to use.
Any other art questions you have.
To book your place contact me ASAP as spaces for this opportunity are limited.
